    Another Surprise from Captain Black.

    @Chasing Embers How much grape flavour is in the CB Grape? My wife used to smoke grape cigarillos. Maybe this is a gateway tobacco.

    Your Own "Best" Tobacco

    This is a bit tricky because for nearly 10 years I’ve mostly smoked a different tobacco every bowl. There have been exceptions where I’ve smoked an entire tin before moving on or spent a week with a blend. I agree with @Skippy B. Coyote, I’m not looking for a favorite. That might get tiring, I...

    Ash Dumping Question

    Not claiming to be an expert, but I don’t dump ash. I agree with @JOHN72, for me the ash seems to make for gentler relights. Also, it is just one less thing to do, simpler is better. I also use the pick like @Sigmund rather than dump ash.

    I Hated Half & Half—Because of the Burley?

    When I just started pipe smoking, H&H was the codger blend I liked the least. Didn’t like the flavour and it had a lot of rough edges. Really unpleasant even though I like licorice. Don’t know if it is improved technique or age on the leaf but I enjoy it now. I do enjoy PA and SWRA more. BTW I...

    Relief For A Sore Mouth

    I have tried biotene, not sure if it is better than other suggestions but did find it to be helpful. I also didn’t have tongue bite. Just some tenderness from way to much smoking for a short time.

    The Explorer...Going All In for Adventure's Sake

    I am at about the ten year point as well. I have tried to explore the different categories of tobacco and the examples that are well regarded. Over time, I’ve focused more on what I like, English and VA/BURS. My cellar is not deep but I have about 10 lbs of unprocessed whole leaf of all...
